Maximum Ride: Around The World.
"What!?" I practically screeched at Fang grabbing him by the collar of his shirt. "Lost!? Again?" I shook him. Iggy pulled us apart. Fang kept his cool. But me, oh no...No way will I keep calm.
"Calm. Down." Iggy ordered. I breathed in then out.
"No...I mean...We went in the opposite direction." Fang said calmly. I narrowed my eyes shrugging out of Iggy's hold.
"You could have set that before." I said. Fang threw his arms in the air.
"You screamed at me!" He said, I huffed.
"Alright. Sorry. Yo kids," I called the three ... Plus Total ... over. "See that hotel over there?" Angel nodded knowing what to do already.
"Oh my God, I can't believe we're lost!" The Gasman mocked me in my own voice. I kicked his but playfully and he stuck his tongue out. Nudge laughed and began her talking.
"Phew." Iggy breathed. "Right...I think I may take this into-" I cut him off by turning him to the hotel and marching him there myself.
"You could have been more specific." I said to Fang. Fang rolled his eyes.
"I didn't know Maximum Ride needed specific-ness." He said. I snickered.
"There's no such word as 'specific-ness'" I countered letting go of Iggy.
" Max. Fang. Did you hear that?" Iggy asked stopping. I looked around, same as Fang.
"What was it?" Fang whispered.
"A twig snapped." Iggy whispered back.
"Lets just go inside, I doubt the Erasers know where we are..." I pointedly looked at Fang who gave me a shrug.
--
"So...You three have that room, wait, Total you make four." I scratched Totals head making his foot twitch. "And us three have this one?" I asked.
"Yeah." Nudge nodded. I shrugged and opened the door. "There's this room thats next to it. The man gave you that one for some reason, Angel picked up on some thoughts but ... She didn't understand them." Nudge shrugged.
Angel and The Gasman and Total had already gone into the room by the looks of it.
"We'll be in to check on you in a minute then." I said and walked into the room.
"I'm in the shower first!" Iggy called. I chuckled. Fang groaned lay on the bed.
"Oh you think you're getting the bed?" I asked whacking his foot. Fang smirked and put his hands behind his head.
"Yep." He said.
"Dream on. And besides, you're on first watch." I said raising my chin triumphantly. Fang scowled and jumped off the bed.
"Do I have to sit on the balcony?" He asked. I shrugged.
"If you want." I said grabbing his wrist and checking the watch. 10:25. "Its not that late, maybe we can wait for a bit." I stretched my arms.
"We can go Wal-Mart tomorrow." I added. Fang smacked my head, but didn't hurt me.
"We're not in America Max." He said as if I were Tarzan, I crossed my arms.
"Sorry. I forgot someone got us lost." I punched his shoulder and plopped onto the small couch.
"I'm going down to the office!" Iggy called, dressed, dried and clothes on. Before we could ask why he was gone.
I shut my mouth and looked at Fang, he gave me the same look.
"I'm in for shower now." I jumped up. But Fang claimed the door.
"Dream on." He mimicked me. I pushed him out the way, and laughed, he wasn't ready for it so he doubled over.
"You might want to try working on that skill of yours." I smirked closing the door behind me and locking it.
I washed my hair and all the other places you need to wash...That sounds weird. I'll stop now, and then got out wrapping a towel around me.
Ten minutes later I came out and rummaged through Fang's back pack. Aha! The Brush. Yes, a girl needs a brush. I whipped my hair back into a ponytail and then set it back down.
"Hey. You can go now." I said jerking my thumb to the bathroom. Fang got up off the bed. "You smell, so wash thoroughly!" I called as he shut the door. He poked his head back out.
"Not as bad as you did." He retorted. I gaped and thought of a comeback.
"I stink awesomely!!" I called hearing his laugh. I'm good. Ssst. --- thats a burn.
Iggy came back with some...Things. "Wow...They have a really good supermarket." He said holding up two bags.
"You forgot us!" I said to him. He laughed and set the bags down and shrugged.
"I got myself some new clothes. And...Some bomb equipment." He held up some of his 'bomb equipment.'
I huffed. "Don't let them off in the building. I'll kill you if you do." I threatened. He rolled his sightless eyes and walked into 'his' room.
Where are we... ?
Ummm...Not sure. Its lying, I know it is.
Are you suuure? I lengthened the word.
Pretty sure.
Liar. But I'll let you off. Ready to tell me if you're woman or man yet?
No.
Aww...You're just insecure.
No reply. Hah.
I yawned and walked out of the door and into the kids room.
"Hey." I said to them. They were sprawled on the double bed watching t.v.
"Girls can have the bed." The Gasman said immeadiatly. Aww, our little gentleman.
Angel giggled at my statement. "Sure Max. He farts!" Gazzy gaped.
"At least I say excuse me." He said hitting her with a pillow. Nudge yawned as well.
"Man. I'm tired. Can we buy some new clothes tomorrow...Ooh, and can we get some food? I'm really hungry, ugh, how far did we travel? Where are we? Did I say I was t-"
"Shut up!" The Gasman yelled. I laughed and Gazzy plopped onto the cot.
"Night guys." I called and held out my fist. We stacked and then I walked out.
"Love you!!" I heard Angel call. I chuckled.
"You too Sweetie." I said through the door.
When I came back. I must say I could have had a heart attack.
... You think its an Eraser don't you.
You're wrong if you are. One. I'm not screaming, but my face is red, I'm sure, and two. I haven't gone into action yet. I'm frozen.
"Fang. I'm in the room now." I muttered tearing my eyes away from the boy with no shirt and abs carved by angels, he has a six pack forming, and they rippled with a shy breath as I watched.
"I didn't prance around when I had no shirt on." I said to him as I gained my courage and looked at his face. Fang smirked.
"Black lace?" He asked. I smacked him with a pillow.
"Whatever. What do you do? Work ou-" I cut myself off. Hello? He'd been fighting Erasers and ... doing whatever.
" Max. You might want to work on those comebacks. And I don't have shirt because the shower head went spaz and went all over my shirt, and jeans. Look. But I wore them." I rolled my eyes.
"Tried the hair dryer?" I asked.
Fang nodded. "I put it on the heater." He pointed to his shirt which was hanging on the white heater. I huffed and tucked some hair behind my ear.
"Guys, I made-" Iggy came barging in a presented a robot bug thing on the floor. "This." I was expecting something else to come walking in and say...
"Anything else master?" In that creepy weird voice. I chuckled at my own imagination.
"What is it?" Fang asked throwing the towel over his shoulder.
"Robo Bug." He shrugged in reply and started to move it around. "I can hook it up to a device, like a lap top or something and it's got a camera on it."
"I'm impressed." I nodded folding my arms. Iggy grinned.
"Me to." He said goofily. "I'll show Gaz in the morning." And he held his fist out. "Night." we stacked and he and Robo Bug went back to the room.
"We have a genius." I muttered stretching. Fang laughed.
I climbed onto the bed and doubted I'd be able to get to sleep. I'm not that tired. Fang walked out onto the balcony and sat down, the muscles in his back rippled as he shivered.
Who knew we'd have a Calvin Klein model in the flock? A boy genius...We have a Rolf Harris, Angel, all that animal rescue stuff...I've just got to make up something for The Gasman and Nudge.
